Moebius Scarf..my first attempt

My latest project...still 'on the needles'..A Moebius Scarf (Cat Bordhi cast-on)
worth googling this one. Took me awhile to catch on but I DID IT!!
Am using a 47inch length needle..notice 'the railway track' type of knitting!! knitting on the top and bottom of the scarf to make the moebius turn...Jackson made me the stitch marker (ladybug bead at the end) for Christmas. You can see the moebius turn above the marker!!

too good not to share

During a visit to my doctor, I asked him, "How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in an old age home?"
"Well," he said, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

 "No" he said. "A normal person would pull the plug.
Do you want a bed near the window?" ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON … OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE? :

This is NOT a joke. If you were able to pass these 3 tests, you can cancel your annual visit to your neurologist. Your brain is great and you're far from having a close relationship with Alzheimer. 

 

angel pictures posted for pogo player to see....

 

a friend took the cardboard centre out of her angel and put cold white lights in it and uses it for her Christmas tree topper...hung thin strands of gold ribbon from the top to the bottom of the tree...I am impressed!  The angel with the ladybug was a private order...
